Send Us Your Real Estate Questions

We spend a lot of time here on the HotProperty blog gauging the health of the real estate market and pointing to clues about where it might be heading.

But today, we need your help. Tell us about the nagging questions you have about the housing market (example: How hard it really is to get a loan or what’s the best way to go about securing one? What might a housing recovery look like? Is this a good time to buy an investment property?)

We’ll collect the best questions and try to answer them in a week or two. No question is too small. But we’ll be looking to answer questions that will be helpful to a large number of readers and, preferably, haven’t been answered in previous stories.

So send questions early and often to prashant_gopal@businessweek.com. We’ve closed the comments on this post because we’d like you to e-mail us directly. If you’d like your name to be included in the story, please send it to us along with a phone number where we can reach you during the day.

Look forward to hearing from you.

UPDATE:

Thanks to those who have already sent in questions. One request, try to word your questions in a way that they’re relevant to a larger audience. In other words, rather than spelling out your personal housing situation, ask me a broader question. Here’s an example of a great question we received: Does the traditional rule of thumb that housing shouldn’t cost more than 2.5 times annual income still apply today?
